  1. CW: 135 - 145 - (155 X 2) - 150 - 155. I was aiming to match my 1RM of 175, but I'll take this. I was going too slow the first time, running out of air and strength on the way down. So I was determined to go faster the second time around. It worked!

  2. Front Sqaut 3 reps: 65-75-85-95-(105); I did make 2/3 of 105 so I did hit my PR for single rep. Happy overall as I really struggle with the front squat. My form needs a lot of work.
